I recently bought a royal blue 4" python which was made in 1994. I brought it home, cleaned it real well and the following saturday, took it to the range. In 50 rounds of Remington range loads, I had 2 misfires which did go bang when reloaded. I asked around and got varied opinions. Some suggested that the main spring may have been tweeked for a smoother trigger pull thus causing a weak strike. Others said it may be a low spot in a specific chamber in the cylinder(again causing a weak strike). Still others suggested changing ammo brand. I took it to the range again today and again used remington range loads(different lot #) and again there were more misfires. I marked the chambers with a sharpie pen..but found that the misfires were coming from different chambers on the cylinder. I finally figured out that the misfires occured when firing in double action but didn't occur when fired in single action. One of the misfires didn't have a strike mark on the primer. any clues from the gunsmiths out there?
